Hi All.

FYI The center does not perform the surgery; it's done in the hospital.

I chose Dr Eid and will go to Pascack Valley in Westwood God willing. I'm set for Jan 29th.

If your in northern NJ why not go to NYC. I was at NYU. If you have a complication you don’t want to be in a ‘center’ you want to be in a multidisciplinary full hospital.

Hackensack UMC is where many North Jersey patients go. One of the best in the area according to my research.

WELL SO much Drama but surgery was cancelled. Longgg story short: Thursday an abnormal chest x-ray (from DEC) sent me to ER for CAT scan with contrast... walking pneumonia. Antibiotics given. Monday comes and anesthesiologist cancels the surgery due to this, even though chest x ray is now clear. I left and got chest x ray redone and waiting on clearance again so I can have surgery on Monday Feb 5th. Anybody been to Pascack?? Also did this situation ever happen to someone?

Bummer sure hope you're feeling better and get your surgery on the 5th of February. Waiting can be the pits.
